Natural occurrence | Reported found in European cranberry (Vaccinium oxycoccus L.), guava fruit (Psidium guajava L.), Vitis labrusca L., tomato, anise (Pimpinella anisum L.), mentha oils, grilled and roasted beef, sherry, cloudberry (Rubus chamaemorus L.), salted and pickled plums, Illicium verum and black chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa ell.). |
Chemical Properties | WHITE CRYSTALS OR CRYSTALLINE POWDER |
Chemical Properties | 4-Methoxyacetophenone occurs in anise oil. It forms white crystals (mp 38°C) with a sweet odor, reminiscent of hawthorn. 4-Methoxyacetophenone is prepared by Friedel-Crafts acetylation of ani sole. A modern process uses ??-zeolites as Friedel-Crafts catalysts in combination with a continuous flow technology. 4-Methoxyacetophenone is used in soap perfumes |

Uses | 4'-Methoxyacetophenone is a solid, pale yellow flavoring agent with a hawthornlike odor. It is soluble in most fixed oils and prop ylene glycol, and it is insoluble in glycerin and mineral oil. It is obtained by chemical synthesis. This flavoring substance or its adjuvant may be safely used in food in the minimum quantity required to produce its intended flavor. It can be used alone or in combination with other flavoring substances or adjuvants. It is also termed p-methoxyacetophenone. |
Uses | Perfumery (for floral odors), flavoring. |
Definition | ChEBI: A member of the class of acetophenones that is acetophenone substituted by a methoxy group at position 4. |
Preparation | From aniso le and ac etyl chlor ide in the presence of aluminum chloride and carbon disulfide; from anis ole and acetic acid in the presence of b oron trif luoride. |
Taste threshold values | Taste characteristics at 10 ppm: sweet, anisic, fruity, cherry with powdery vanilla nuances. |

Safety Profile | Moderately toxic by ingestion. Human systemic effects by inhalation: pulse rate increase without fall in blood pressure and blood pressure elevation. A skin irritant. Flammable liquid. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes. See also KETONES. |
Purification Methods | Crystallise the ketone from diethyl ether/pet ether. [Beilstein 8 IV 340.] |
